I got one for you. In December my aunt's 2004 Chevy Malabou started knocking with 45,000 miles. Dealer 20 miles away told her that GM would cover the repair but not the $200 towing bill. I hauled the car to the dealer on a trailor. They wanted a maintance record for the car. Aunt always went to a Valvaline Lube joint just up from her house. When she bought the car new dealer said the warentey would be good as long as she had a record of the oil changes and all. Asked the guy at the jiffy lube joint if they kept a record on the computer. Went to the Lube joint to get a print out of the records. The manager turned white as a gost. He asked her if she had paid cash, she said most of the time. He had only been there two weeks because the company had fired every one there because they were pocketing cash and not recording anything. She only had two oil changes in the computer when she had written a check. She was out of pocket a new engine in a 2 year old car because of the nice boys who tried to get her to buy a $13 air filter every time she got her oil changed (she was smart enough to leave there and get a $5 fram from wal-mart.) There are good people in this world but by God they are getting harder to find. Dave

A good friend and I were recently discussing our tractor electrical systems when he stated "I figure it all comes back to applying Ohms Law". At this point
